Ideal bedding management is essential for optimal health, welfare, and growth performance of dairy calves. The study was conducted in order to compare the effect different materials on Murrah buffalo calves (n=20) less than 4 months age were selected divided into four groups (5 animals/group), viz. T1: Concrete floor, T2: floor bedded with sand, T3: wheat straw T4: rubber mat. Body weight body ...

OBJECTIVE Broilers show clear preference towards red color light (RL). However setting of an optimum light intensity is difficult since dim intensities that favor growth reduce welfare. This experiment was conducted to test the most effective RL intensity regimen (Dim [5 lux; DI] vs high [320 lux; HI]) in combination applied at different growth stages that favors for both performance and welfar...

INTRODUCTION The use of peripheral hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs) is the cell choice in autologous transplantation. The classic dose of granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) for mobilization is a single daily dose of 10μg/kg of patient body weight. There is a theory that higher doses of granulocyte-colony stimulating factor applied twice daily could increase the number of CD34(+)...

This study was planned to determine the effects of feed restriction applied at different times and levels on occurrence white striping wooden breast myopathies, performance, carcass characteristics some blood parameters in broilers. In total, 600 male broilers were randomly placed 5 groups with eight replicates. Control group fed ad libitum throughout experimental period. T1 T2 received as 80% ...

The study was conducted to evaluate the effect of vitamin E and zinc supplementation on energy metabolites, lipid peroxidation, and milk production in peripartum Sahiwal cows. For this, thirty-two pregnant dry Sahiwal cows were selected at sixty days prepartum and divided into four groups viz control, T1, T2, and T3 of eight each. Group T1 were supplemented with zinc at 60 ppm/d/cow, group T2 w...

This study was done to observe the anthropometry and body composition changes before, during, and after the holy month of Ramadan. This study was carried out on 46 staff from one of the local universities, which comprised of 14 males and 32 females ranging in age from 25 to 40 years old. There were four sessions done to complete this study, namely, a week before Ramadan (T1), 1st week of Ramada...

We investigated the stability and the directionality of being body bullied and a set of four variables- 1) Body Mass Index (BMI), 2) moderate and vigorous physical activity (MVPA), 3) television time (TV) and 4) video game/computer time (VG)-, termed in the present study as 'health-related state and behaviours (HRSB)'-across adolescence. The Adolescent Nutritional Assessment Longitudinal Study ...

Using a 0.5 tesla superconducting magnetic system, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies were performed in 42 patients (27 prostatic carcinoma and 15 benign prostatic hyperplasia) and 2 healthy volunteers. Spin echo images were produced in the transverse, coronal and sagittal directions. T1 and T2 relaxation times were calculated from these images. The images of 2 normal prostates showed 2 s...

the objective of the present study was to detect polymorphism in follicle stimulating hormone receptor (fshr) and beta subunit of follicle stimulating hormone (fshβ) genes and their relation to litter size and body weight trait in baluchi, iran black and arman sheep breeds. pcr-rflp technique using acci and hinfi enzyme treatments employed to detection of polymorphism in fshβ marker site but de...

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of different level of virginiamycin (VIR) on Growth performance, biochemistry, and hematology blood parameters broiler chickens. A total of 240 day-old broilers (Ross 308) were randomly allocated to four groups of 15 chicks each. Each four groups assigned in completely randomized design with four replicate. Experimental groups consisted ...
